Get startedMews Cottage is a detached house in Foxley, Dereham, Dereham (NR20 4QP). It has a recorded floor area of 146 m² (around 1572 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1967-1975. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in March 2012 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average and main heating dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since March 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 146 m² the property is well over the postcode median (105 m² across 20 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £513,000 sits 50.9% above the 2008 sale of £340,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£216/sq ft) was about 15.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 3 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an annexe, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
Mews Cottage's carbon output runs well above what efficient homes in the postcode produce.
